Level 10 Half Dragon Character Help

Lawful Good = PALADIN!

If you are going to be lawful good, you may want to consider a couple levels of Paladin, and moving your INT to CHA. Then look at putting your Dex into Wisdom, swap the 12 INT for the 10 DEX, so 10 INT and 12 DEX. You lose 2 to your AC, but gain +4 to your will save, and a total bonus of +9 to your will and +5 to all (if the CHA is a 20).

Are these controlling Dragons good or evil? Have you considered Ranger with a species enemy of Dragon?

Stats would be:

STR: 32
DEX: 12
CON: 20
INT: 10
WIS: 18
CHA: 20


As far as feats go, pick a style, then specialize specialize specialize.

Visualize what you want to do in combat, then find feats that meet that goal.

the dragons are evil. and ive played rangers before, and i suck. im no good with paladins either... and i think theyre too goody two shoes. i might take metabreath feats and wepon spec feats, but great cleve is a no brainer, because of my 10ft reach from being large.

So the feat list is something like this:
Power Attack
Cleave
Great Cleave
Dragon Breath
Improved Init
Weapon Focus: Greatsword
Weapon Specialization Greatsword
Improved Crit: Greatsword
Insert Metabreath Feat here
Insert Metabreath Feat here
and then that feat that gives you Str 2x instead of 1.5 for twohanders.

the Psychic Warrior class offers 3/4 bab and access to some pretty cool feats not to mention many of the PW powers enhance natural weapon attacks and first two levels gives you 2 feats

something to consider

were using 3.0 with races of the dragon and (later of course) an epic 3.0 book.

 

[monboesen]

that is, after i get some levels, i get bigger. im already large, and huge comes at 15th level

That sounds as a really bad idea, unless he is going to charge you further ECL for that size increase.

Based on this response I would say take whatever feats do the most damage in the least amount of time and don't complicate the rules at all. Also if you are going to be fighting dragons alot, look at Dragonbane, Dragonfoe, Dragondoom, all in the Draconomicon. At least that way you can use your 20 INT for something other than making armor.

Brain the size of a planet.....

i cant help if i have one of the first intelligent fighters...
besides, what would you do if you gained 45 xp for every shortsword you made?

 

[javcs]

You're gaining XP for making stuff?

Cleave/Great Cleave might not be the best of feats, think about how often they'll be useful.

Awesome Blow. You'll need to pick up Imp Bullrush, but that can be fun.
Combat Reflexes.

what would you do if you gained 45 xp for every shortsword you made?

ehh.....what or rather why would you get that?



If any smith gains 45 xp per short sword he produces an Expert (npc class) weaponsmith will reach 5th level in about 1,5 years, 10th level in 4 years and 20th level in roughly 10 years by doing nothing but hammering swords out.

At a guess, DM's houserule.
Are you taking into account that they'd be doing things other than making swords with their time?
